[QUOTE="milanuk, post: 303918, member: 376"] Silly question for ya... since I can't actually measure the wind down range at the different zones... how accurate can you really get with that part of the program? Not questioning the technical aspects of the program or anything like that, but have you used that part successfully in the field i.e. 'hmmm... 12 mph @ 8 o'clock here at the muzzle, looks like a little more, maybe 15-16 full-value @ mid-range, and almost nothing moving down at the target'? That stuff is hard enough for me to keep track of in my head, trying to keep track of it in a timely fashion on a PDA seems like a full-time job (for the spotter/gun-bearer :D ) Seems like one heckuva a 'what-if' program (which I love!) but not sure I want to deal with another M$-Windoze based pda after my encounter with a 'smart' phone loaded with their stuff... although I've heard lots of good things about the Dell Axims... maybe on the laptop though?
